    4.3 CLAIMS
    Mr. Tim Armstrong, Assistant Superintendent

    5. ACTION ITEMS
    Dr. Bryan Perry, Superintendent

    5.1 School Pysch Services 23-24
    Dr. Bryan Perry, Superintendent

    We posted for a candidate for the past year with no success.  We used the service successfully this year and were happy with the level of service. The cost will be split based on usage with an estimated 33% being funded by East Gibson for their needs.  


    5.2 Board Resolution 1003b Waiver Application
    Dr. Bryan Perry, Superintendent
    2 minutes

    The SBOE requires a board resolution for application for the 1003b Waiver.  The waiver will cover the late start PD days.  The waiver application is annually not available until late spring for submission. 


    5.3 Board approval for FFA scholarship
    Mr. Tim Armstrong, Assistant Superintendent

    The GSHS FFA chapter wishes to move $15,000 from the FFA account of the Gibson County Community Foundation to create an endowment scholarship to benefit Gibson Southern FFA members.  The results of their vote and letter requesting this are attached.


    5.4 SGSC discussion to pay mandatory portion of PERF for PERF covered positions
    Mr. Tim Armstrong, Assistant Superintendent

    Most school districts in our area pay the 3% mandatory PERF for PERF-covered employees.  The estimated annual exposure for the school corporation would be between 35 and 50k per year depending on employee earnings if the Board would begin to cover that expense for employees.


    5.5 Approve transfer from Education to Operations

    5.6 Ask Board to approve moving accounting software to Boyce Systems - BSF Software
    Mr. Tim Armstrong, Assistant Superintendent

    The cost of the system and migration of our S/36- AS/400 Komputrol to a cloud-based, Windows version of Komputrol will be between $31,000 and $52,000 depending upon the modules we decide upon.  Our goal is to get Board approval to move so we can be placed upon a conversion calendar earlier, and in the meantime finalize the modules and final cost of the system.  We had budgeted $75,000 to migrate to the new system.


    5.7 Tennis Tournament Overnight Trip
